(57) A cabinet adapted to house electronic and communication equipment therein. The cabinet
includes modifiable top, bottom and side walls. Grommets with notches are provided
to accommodate passage of wires and cables into and out of the cabinet. The notches
function to receive the wires and/or cables and to mitigate passage of air through
the grommet. A micro controller is provided for each individual cabinet to both monitor
and control variants within the cabinet. The micro controller may be accessed on site
with a local operator, or remotely through a memory addressable system.
